Alzheimer's and Slowing finding a Cure

According to the Fox News article "Scientists stop brain cells in mice from dying in potential Alzheimer's treatment breakthrough" we seem to have stumbled upon a drug that can reverse and prevent Alzheimer's or Parkinson's disease -- in mice. Although they do seem to jump the gun on saying that it is a break-though and even the original source mentioned, "if only it was that straightforward" (SkyNews).  So I would also argue that it really isn't a "breakthrough". What the Fox News people did was that they kept throwing out "fact" claims, in were close to what Sky News was saying but not yet there. What the actually scientists involved with the study and Sky News were trying to get at was, realistically they found something that was essential but not necessarily a major major finding. Why? Because they still have about a decade and a half to go and make sure that the drug can be used specifically for humans. 
On top of that, the original source mentioned that the proteins in the neurodegenerative diseases are only similar to that of Alzheimer's. So FN again speaks too soon. That how I would refute them, they do seem to make the situation a little more hopeful.
I also think it is kinda funny that they provide the source of their information, and the source says something quite differently than what they do.
